Post-Newtonian gravitational radiation from orbiting point masses
Abstract
General formulas are derived which describe the gravitational radiation at large distances from a system of bodies whose sizes are small compared with their separations. The calculation is carried out through post-Newtonian order within general relativity. More explicit formulas are derived for two-body systems, and detailed results are presented for circular orbits, gravitational bremsstrahlung, and head-on collisions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
